Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari collected Rs. 1 crore on Wednesday, a 30 percent drop from its discounted Tuesday. The drop on Wednesday is understandable as ticket prices return to normal. But the problem is the overall low base of its collections. The film’s running total reached Rs. 53 crore net at the Indian box office. It will wrap its second week around Rs. 54 crore.
At one point, it seemed that the movie would struggle even to hit the Rs. 50 crore mark. However, it picked up decently due to Buy-One-Get-One offers on weekdays, which have been active since its first Monday. The romantic comedy drama is expected to cross the Rs. 55 crore mark in the coming weekend. And, then it will face the two new releases- Thamma and Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat. Depending on how it performs post Diwali releases, its lifetime collection will be around Rs. 57 crore to Rs. 59 crore net in India.
However, it will not change the fate of the Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor starrer, which was sealed in its opening weekend itself, and that is, FLOP.
The genre and mid-budget films are struggling in general in post-pandemic times. What was working earlier isn’t attracting the audience now. One of the prime reasons is the erosion of the theatrical base by digital platforms. The makers need to extend the 8-week OTT window to at least 6 months and make the wait inconvenient for the audience to revive the business.
